If you scored between 70 and 100
You are ready to follow the "Advanced" Coaching program of Lean Production.

You should, however, hire a real expert in Kaizen Coaching methodologies; this will allow you to facilitate and accelerate the achievement of your goals.
If you scored between 45 and 69
You need to follow a Lean Production Coaching program.
Your result shows that you and your company have already integrated basic elements that adhere to the principles and concepts of Lean Production Coaching!
However, these basic elements are not enough to ensure the success of a Lean Production program. We suggest you hold an introducist seminar on Lean philosophy and methodologies. Through this seminar, you will be able to show your team, the principles, concepts and attitude that these methodologies require. In this seminar you will also be able to measure the gap between your current organization and the ideal future state proposed by the Lean philosophy; defining the gap will help you (in the future) to measure the degree of progress towards the set goals.
If you scored between 1 and 44
You have a high need to follow a Lean Production Coaching program.
Your result shows that you and your company today have few basic elements adhering to the mentality and principles of Lean Production.
Before following a Lean Production program, we suggest you meet a Kaizen Coach experienced in the implementation of Lean Production programs. The Kaizen Coach will be able to explain to you what the fundamentals, principles, and concepts to which this methodology asks you to adhere are. During this meeting you will also be able to understand the gap between the current organization of your company and the ideal future state to which Lean aspires.
